[S3D_V5]Printer change under processes

[stevedee78]

With version 4 the software changed the printer when I double clicked on a process. I have several processes there with different printers (Ender 3 and Modix Big60). Now with V5, when I select a process (e.g. Ender3_TPU to Big60_PETG), the slicer does not change the print bed displayed. What can I do to make it work like in V4?

Can you use the "Save As New" button to save the Ender3_TPU and Big60_PETG settings as a new profile? That's really the intended way that the software it meant to store long-term settings for different machines. Processes are more temporary. They get replaced when you load a factory file, use the variable settings wizard, multi-extrusion wizard, configuration assistant, etc.

Once you store the settings as separate profiles instead of processes, you can get rid of some of the extra processes in list since the profiles are already stored permanently in the separate profile database. Now, when you change the "Select Profile" drop down for your process, the build volume should update correctly. The issue previously was probably just that you had 1 process for the Ender 3 and another for the Big60, and the software can't draw both of them at once.

Thanks for the answer. That is exactly how I will do it.
